    The one from BW2 is the size of an Ultra

    The Robotmasters one is the size of a small deluxe/large basic.

    bigger version also has 4 missile launchers, spring-loaded claws, and a spinning lion's mane that makes it look like a flower.

    Also, the original version has a nice looking beast mode with a pretty nice robot mode, while the RM version has a really cool robot mode with an ugly ass beast mode.

    It's good if you can't find or afford the big one, but if you have a choice go for the BW2 version.

    yeah, and they all suck.

    oh, BW2 version cant stand up in beast mode (at least, both of mine cant) but the RM version can.

    Unlesss you're really set on the Robot Masters version, I'd suggest you get the full sized version. Last time i looked it was available at a low price.

    I need Lio Convoy pretty bad, once I get enough money to finish up with the Energon/Universe toys I missed, I need to make him a priority of mine. I've had BW2 Galvatron for years now, and he's lonely without his enemy!

    God that sounds so geeky!
